A spokesperson for the soap said at the time: ‘Stephanie Davis will no longer be filming Hollyoaks. Her contract has been terminated with immediate effect.’

However the current Celebrity Big Brother star says she wasn’t dropped, but decided to leave the Channel 4 soap because she’d ‘had enough’.

She admitted that she was ‘sad’ about the situation.

In an interview with BBC Newsbeat before going into the CBB house she said: ‘I walked out and they tried to get me back several times, and I said no. I left because I had enough and I was just ready to move on, I’d been there since I was 16 and that was kind of it.
